Note(s): Strong: Clear DI locus, explicit comparator (gate, SLO), stated telemetry signal, effector path (automated, HITL), traceable assurance artifact (logs, dashboards, lineage, audit, drift, model, data card) and a design-compliance KPI (e.g. pass/fail, SLO adherence, audit completeness, bounded drift). Moderate: Some elements are present (e.g. artifact but vague KPI, or KPI but weak artifact) with reasonable operational detail. Weak: Conceptual claims with little operational detail, missing artifact or missing comparator/telemetry/effector, DI locus unclear. Unstated: Insufficient information to classify
